Remorse

Moments ago, I destroyed the innocence
Of one the most beautiful people I know.
An for once I am honestly sorry, for anyone
That has ever uttered my name in--love,
Because I don't believe that I have never
Been as loved as he did me.

I wish I didn't do things to make people
Hate me, but I've tried. I just can't--
I'm bad.

And if he does read this, in an old paper-back
-- Book, in the back of store. I hope that he
Will forgive me--because I know I haven't
--Forgiven myself.

Fin.
